This app needs helpVery frustrating app to use. I use the PD and other news apps, and this PD app is generations behind other newspaper apps. I much prefer an iPad version to having stacks of paper around, but this app needs help. When was it last updated? 2011? It crashes at least twice every time I try to use it, and as one reviewer said, it's basically a PDF of the paper with a few hyperlinks to pages and Cleveland.com. This is the best they could so? Sad.

Needs helpIt is a good start for a class project. The view is really a PDF like view of the paper and it is not user friendly. Also, the paper can only be read on the iPad that was used to purchase the subscription. I look forward to previewing the next version that I hope will function like other news paper apps.

Works fine for meI don't understand all the complaints. I have no problems with this app. Since I already receive the print version it only costs me about $1 a month to receive the e-edition. I think that's a bargain.

Terrible, frustrating app!I just asked for a refund from iTunes. This app flat-out does not work. Unfortunately, I didn't read all these negative comments until after I'd purchased a subscription. The couple of people who put 5 stars are obviously the developer, who should be ashamed of releasing such a abomination. An app developer you are not.
What really gets me is these negative comments span 7 months now, and it's apparently not a high priority to fix it. This app needs to be removed from the Apple Store before more people lose their money!!!
